Our view

Adidon verdict
Golf-course views. Serviced living. Kigali convenience.
Adidon

KG 592/546 Street, Kacyiru, overlooking Kigali Golf Course, near Nyarutarama, government offices and corporate demand. Payment: front-loaded, with 50% on signing, 25% at the structure milestone, 15% at internal finishes and 10% at handover (shown as negotiable).

Amenities: swimming pool, fitness centre, sauna and spa, children's play area, lifts, retail and grocery space, balconies, storage, wheelchair access and 24-hour security. Finishes: Sep 2026 reports show painting and tiling at 90%, aluminium at 85%, carpentry and electrical at 75% and plumbing fixtures at 50%. Confirm the furnishing specification and brands.

Prime Kigali: golf course, Nyarutarama restaurants and services, and steady expatriate and short-stay demand. Operating costs and apartment-hotel management terms need review.

This sits in the middle band of our reviewed Rwanda projects: 1-bed (≈USD 1,563/m²); 2-bed Kacyiru view (≈USD 1,538/m²); 2-bed golf view (≈USD 1,857/m²); 3-bed golf view (≈USD 1,857/m²); 5-bed duplex penthouse (≈USD 2,000/m²). The Kacyiru-view 2-bed is the best value and golf views carry about a 20% premium, pricier per m² than Opulent Park and similar to Avida's larger units.

Royal Golf View is approaching the final stages, with the residential blocks well advanced and finishing, infrastructure and external works still being completed. The golf-course setting and serviced-apartment concept are attractive, but the Dec 2026 target may be tight given the outstanding Block C and site works. Confirm the latest programme, furnishing specification, management agreement, service charge and contractual handover date before committing.

Before you pay16 checks to run before you commit any money: approvals, title, quality, progress, payment protection and the full cost. Includes 5 specific to Royal Golf View Apartment Hotel.

New to buying property? Start with the title, the approvals and the sale agreement. These protect your money most. Get an advocate to review the documents before you sign or pay a deposit.

  • Verify the approvals. Ask to see the relevant development and construction approvals, ownership or title documents, and any required permits. Have an independent advocate review them.
  • Review the consultants' reports. Request relevant reports and certifications from the project's architect, engineer and other appointed professionals.
  • Ask for quality-control evidence. Request approved material specifications and test results for items such as concrete, steel and soil, where applicable. Confirm these with the project engineer.
  • Get progress confirmed independently. Ask for a dated progress report signed by the appointed consultants. If the project is behind schedule, request a written recovery or mitigation plan.
  • Clarify the completion date and remedies. Ensure the sale agreement states the completion date and explains what happens if delivery is delayed, including any agreed late-delivery compensation.
  • Ask about contractor security. Confirm whether the contractor has provided a performance bond and whether it remains valid for the relevant works.
  • Understand the full purchase cost. Request a written breakdown of the price, taxes, legal and transaction costs, utility or connection charges, service charge, and any other fees.
  • Check the payment plan. Confirm when each instalment is due, what it is tied to, and how payments are protected if construction is delayed or the project changes.
  • Inspect a completed unit or show house. Compare the finishes and fittings with the written specifications, and ask how changes or defects will be handled.
  • Confirm what is included. Check the unit size, parking, amenities, finishes, fixtures and any shared facilities against the sale documents.
  • Get independent advice before signing. Have an advocate review the sale agreement and consider asking an independent building professional to assess the project.
